Biography
Brian Shekleton supports MnDOT’s efforts to adapt to climate change by coordinating the agency’s internal Resilience Advisory Team and leading the statewide, multidisciplinary team that is guiding the development of MnDOT’s Resilience Improvement Plan. He serves on the University of Minnesota Climate Adaptation Partnership’s advisory board and prior to joining MnDOT he worked in Hennepin County’s Public Works Department where he led the development of that county’s first Climate Action Plan. Brian’s baptism into the nitty-gritty of resilience planning came during the 12 years he spent working on stormwater and water quality issues as a member of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District board, a local watershed that has taxing authority and spans urban, suburban, and rural parts of the Minneapolis metropolitan area.
